Happiness?

Happiness?

What is the definition of Happiness?

Is it sitting next to your lover

in Italy smelling the fresh smell of linens

drying from a string just above you?

Is it running down a steep hill

with the fog slowly falling with you

as you look out to the sight of pure green?

Is it riding on a train in the dead of winter

awaiting for the adventure ahead?

Is it simply the sound of running bath water

whispering your name to "jump" in and soak with pleasure?

Is it walking down a silent street during fall

with only you and the streetlight to have a conversation with?

Is it stepping out into a warm day after being

drowned by the depths of winter but suddenly feeling the

warmth slowly come back into your bones?

Is it hearing the rain trickle while you paint

with pastels your fantasies?

Is it taking a road trip with your lover

not knowing what turn on the windy road will be next?

Is it the discovery of a new record

hearing its glorious uniqueness of pure ear candy?

Is it finding an antique in a vintage store

and knowing extacly where its new home with be?

Is it buying that crepe from the backery that is

to beautiful and satisfying to eat?

Is it driving through a long tunnel and finally

finding the sunshine again?

I suppose there is no true definition

as to what genuine happiness is 

But I hope one day you will discover it

liked the way you wrote things around so well. starting's way captivating.

in real world, to half of us youth, happiness's all what love brings to our hearts' so being so hovered by such ecstatic moments, sometimes, we're being lost within... and have forgotten the real phase -- the value of happiness. nice imagery here. i resonating allot of things from here that i don't think can write in such "short" reviews.

looking forward to reading your work!

Great imagination of the means of happiness. I think happiness resides in all these things but it depends on a person that in which he/she feels happiness. nice thank for sharing.

Yes your right! There really is no true definition of what happiness is, thats why its so beautiful, everyone has different thoughts and ideas of what makes them feel true joy during the most terrible moments of their lives. Thank you so much for your review Szhzia!

Imageries of happiness... Happiness is something that can be found in anything if the heart is feeling happiness within... Your poem describes and asks questions to the reader about what are things or moments that makes him/her find happiness... Your thoughtful work flows with a vision towards a positive attitude of love along with a desire to find happiness... Nicely constructed work, with lots of opportunity for the reader to find relatable things...
